6 FAQs about [Italian significance high-tech energy storage]
How does Italy guarantee a long-term supply system of new storage capacity?
The Italian legislator has acted to guarantee a long-term supply system of new storage capacity by introducing a mechanism based on competitive, transparent and non-discriminatory auctions. The system recognises the right to an annual remuneration, in exchange for the provision of the awarded capacity as part of the national energy market.
What challenges will Italy face in the energy transition?
Energy transition – the need to achieve progressive and complete decarbonisation by 2050 – presents Italy with important challenges in increasing energy production from renewable resources on the one hand, and the necessary progressive increase in the availability of utility-scale energy storage capacity on the other.
Are batteries and Hy-Drogen promoting a progressive decarbonization of the Italian power sector?
Both batteries and hydrogen are introduced as electrical energy storage systems. The role of VRES and storage facilities (batteries and hy-drogen) in promoting a progressive decarbonization of the Italian power sector is then explored from an economic and environmental perspective.
How can OSeMOSYS improve long-term planning of the Italian power sector?
In this work, an updated version of the OSeMOSYS tool is used to perform an optimal long-term planning of the Italian power sector. A time series clustering approach is applied, considering time varying input data, such as the time series related to VRES capacity factors and electricity demand.
What resources does Italy use to produce electricity?
The Italian context At present, the Italian electricity supply strongly relies on fossil power plants, which exploit resources such as coal, oil, natural gas and non renewable industrial and municipal waste [ 41 ].
Does the Italian power sector need a decarbonization?
The analysis of the decarbonization of the Italian power sector shows that an important shift is needed from the current energy mix, which relies heavily on fossil fuel-based technologies, to an opposite configuration strongly based on renewable energy sources.
